International Net on 14,292From Pertti EA7GSUThe
North Atlantic net (1200hrs, 14292,5kHz) was veery much the
usualbut with more participants. Mike, N4PF came in fine
57 and gave thesame to me. Klaus, HB9CQS stayed for a
short while with 59 signal, hada copy of Mike but then
couldn't resist the inviting "odour" comingfrom the
kitchen of HB9CQR, Karen. We had a visitor, F4GHB Alain with
59 although with qsb down to 55. His excuse was musically
controlledphysical excercise (Sunday Ball) and he left
early as well. Malcolmhad his antenna up, the storm
obviously has eased and he was 57 givingthe same to me.
Mike and Malcolm still couldn't hear each other both
ways.

I closed the net at 1227hrs.

I kept busy
in the morning and the afternoon calling CQ POLIO on 20m
and 10m. Got 31 scalps with two W's,one VU and one LU
included.
